 Adrenalin Aloft - Tall Ships Races 2010 & Square Rig Tasters

Time to climb the rigging on a tall ship, it's not too late to try. Stow sails with other everyday heroes from fearless teenagers to 70 year olds. There is always plenty to do on deck with sail trimming, steering, lookout and much more.

Short breaks - restore, recharge & re-discover

‘Something Different for the Weekend’ as Andrew Eames describes in his latest travel book about one of our 3 day voyages. You can try a short break on any of our tall ships and traditional vessels.

Unspoilt destinations & wildlife -explore under sail

Where do you want to go? Travelling by tall ships and traditional vessels you get  very close to nature and leave no trace when you leave. Antarctica and Arctic wildlife expeditions.

Longer expeditions, GAP year or personal challenge

The beauty of  a tall ship voyage is you can plan to go somewhere and set a challenge like crossing the equator. Cross oceans and go to unusual places only possible by sail.

 

Tamsin Mulcahy Bark Europa Canaries to Salvador in Brazil. Testimonials

Life aboard ‘Bark Europa’ is a truly unforgettable experience and something that I would recommend to anyone. The only downside for me was that I had to leave the ship in Salvador and fly home. Already I can’t wait to go again – I can’t think of a better way to travel and make life-long friends!              Tamsin Mulcahy Nov 09
